What do North Korea, Lindsay Lohan, the Ebola virus, gonorrhea and the Kardashians have in common? They are the only things people say that they dislike more than Congress. People vastly prefer lice to Congress, which I found interesting. They narrowly prefer Donald Trump and Genghis Khan to Congress. I don’t think that they are adequately familiar with Genghis Khan’s occupation policies.
People like root canals and colonoscopies more than Congress. By 2-to-1, they like replacement referees more than Congress and they prefer brussel sprouts by an astounding 3-to-1 margin. They even like cockroaches, political pundits, and used car salesmen more than Congress.
And, yet, they just reelected almost all of Congress’s incumbents.
Go figure.
Yeah, but it’s all those other assholes that make the place so bad. Our guy is, well, better than gonorrhea anyway.
There’s a joke to be made about Congress, gonorrhea, and “both sides do it,” but it escapes me at the moment.
My girlfriend makes a dish with pancetta and brussel sprouts which is great. We have it every Christmas.
The people are not given true choices. In many districts, incumbents run without opposition. In others, the opposition is either a Tea Party Loon or a Far Left Loon.
Or the challenger gets absolutely nothing from the old boy party organizations.
The people are not given true choices.
Srsly. Congress or head lice? What kind of a choice is that?
Go with the lesser evil, head lice.
Y’know, if I could get rid of my congressman by simply shaving my head, it would be done by this afternoon.
So yeah, I’d rather have the head lice.
Guess we’re not as smart as we think we are.
The fact that the media keeps calling the problem “Congress” instead of “Republicans” or even “House Republicans” probably doesn’t help.
They’re going to be even more unpopular if they force even a temporary government shutdown. The 1990’s left it shutdown for almost a month. Not going to be happy to be without an entire month’s pay.
it’s that simple…. trying the same thing again and again hoping for better results
